GOODYEAR TIRES Complaints

THE CHECK VEHICLE SOON LIGHT CAME ON SO I IMMEDIATLY DROVE TO THE DEALERSHIP, I WAS TOLD THAT I DID NOT TIGHTED DOWN THE GAS CAP AND THATS WHY THE LIGHT CAME ON SO THEY RE-SET THE LIGHT. TWO DAYS LATER THE LIGHT RETURNED AND AGAIN I WAS TOLD ABOUT THE GAS CAP, I EXPLAINED THAT I HAD NOT PUT ANY GAS IN IT. THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTIC AND DISCOVERED THE CAR HAD A "WEAK FUEL PUMP". #2 I WAS LEAVING FROM A STOP SIGN WHEN MY TIRE BLEW OUT, I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS NOT COVERED BECAUSE I MUST OF HIT SOMETHING WITH IT. (I NEVER HIT ANYTHING). #3 I ATTEMPTED TO MOVE THE CAR FROM INFRONT OF MY HOME, INTO THE DRIVEWAY, RED FLUID BEGAN TO POUR OUT UNDER THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE WATER PUMP WAS REPLACED. #4 THE VEHICLE ENGINE HAS HAD A LOW IDLE MISS THAT STARTED ABOUT 10 DAYS AFTER WE BROUGHT THE CAR HOME. #4 I JUST NOTICED THAT MY PASSENGER DOOR IS POPING AGAINST THE RIGHT FRONT FENDER WHEN YOU ATTEMPT TO OPEN IT. THE CONDITION SEEMS TO BE WORSENING AND YOU CAN SEE THAT THE FENDER AND THE DOOR DO NOT LINE UP CORRECTLEY. THE DEALERSHIP CONTINUES TO TELL ME THAT THE CAR IS RUNNING TO "FACTORY SPECIFICATIONS" AT THIS TIME. I AM AT A LOSS I DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GET MY VEHICLE TAKEN CARE OF WHEN THE DEALERSHIP DOESNT EVEN CARE ENOUGH TO TAKE THE TIME TO CHECK IT OUT. THIS WAS MY FIRST CARBUYING EXPERIENCE AND IT HAS BEEN A NIGHTMARE, I LOVE MY MONTE CARLO AND I JUST WISH SOMEONE WOULD ASSIST ME. (TIRESIZE: P255 60R16)( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P255 60R16 )

HAVE HAD THREE FLAT TIRES IN THE LAST YEAR FOR NO REASON. I DON'T KNOW IF THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE TIRE OR THE WHEEL. THE LAST TIME THE TIRE WENT FLAT AND WAS INSPECTED BY A NON GOODYEAR DEALER, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A DEFECT IN THE SIDEWALL. HE SAID IF IT WAS A PRODUCT THAT HE CARRIED THEY WOULD HAVE REPLACED THE TIRE. THE TIRES HAVE A LOT OF TREAD WEAR LEFT AND HAVE BEEN ROTATED AND BALANCED. GOODYEAR REPLACED THE TIRE ADMITTING THERE WAS A PROBLEM BUT STILL CHARGED ME $94.00. I AM VERY UNHAPPY WITH THE FACT THAT I DRIVE A CAR LESS THAN TWO YEARS OLD, TAKE GOOD CARE OF IT AND HAVE THESE PROBLEMS. I CURRENTLY HAVE ANOTHER FLAT TIRE AND WILL HAVE IT INSPECTED LATER THIS WEEK. EACH TIRE THAT HAS GONE FLAT HAS BEEN ON A DIFFERENT WHEEL IN A DIFFERENT AREA EACH TIME. NO TWO FLATS HAVE BEEN ON THE SAME WHEEL. MOST OF MY DRIVING IS IN TOWN. I HAVE PROBABLY PUT 6,000 HIGHWAY MILES ON THE CAR ON VARIOUS TRIPS. I HAVE NEVER EXCEEDED 80 MPH AND HAVE NOT HAD ANY HANDLING PROBLEMS. (TIRESIZE: P215/50/17)( DOT NUMBER: TIRE SIZE: P215/50/17 )
